The famed "Thrilla in Manilla" fight between Ali and Frazier marked their third and final bout, and it remains one of the most memorable in boxing history. Fought in stifling heat, the bout soon became a battle of attrition as both fighters struggled in the later rounds. The fight eventually ended when Frazier's cornerman, Eddie Futch, threw in the towel prior to the fifteenth round. Ali was equally exhausted and claimed after the fight that it was the closest he ever came to dying. He also said that Frazier quit just before he was going to. This is an exceedingly rare souvenir from one of Ali's career-defining bouts.
